<h3>Source Distribution</h3>

<p />
The <b>source distribution</b> is available from  
<a href="http://www.hdfgroup.org/ftp/HDF5/hdf-java/src">http://www.hdfgroup.org/ftp/HDF5/hdf-java/src</a>.


<p />
The source distribution includes the Java code to build 
<a href="http://www.hdfgroup.org/hdf-java-html/hdfview/index.html">HDFView</a>, the 
<a href="http://www.hdfgroup.org/hdf-java-html/hdf-object/index.html">Java HDF 
Object Package</a>, and related HDF4 and HDF5 Object Packages. 
The source distribution also includes Java classes that declare the native 
methods for 

<a href="http://www.hdfgroup.org/hdf-java-html/JNI/jhi/index.html">Java HDF 
Interface (JHI)</a> and 
<a href="http://www.hdfgroup.org/hdf-java-html/JNI/jhi5/index.html">Java HDF5 
Interface (JHI5)</a> and C code that implements the native methods. 


<p />
JHI requires the HDF4 library (binary), and JHI5 requires the HDF5 
library (binary). These are not included in the HDF Java Products source 
distribution. The HDF libraries can be obtained from the <A 
href="http://www.hdfgroup.org/downloads/index.html">HDF Downloads</A> page.

<p />
Building the HDF Java Products from the source distribution is not an easy 
endeavor. Refer to the following the instructions for more details: 

<ul class="ul">

  href="http://www.hdfgroup.org/hdf-java-html/build_src_unix.html">Building from 
  source on Unix and Mac OS X</a> </li> 
  <li><a 
  href="http://www.hdfgroup.org/hdf-java-html/build_src_windows.html">Building 
  from source on Windows</a> </li>
</ul>

<p />
<h3>Pre-Built Binaries</h3>

<b>Pre-built binaries</b> are available from  
<a href="http://www.hdfgroup.org/ftp/HDF5/hdf-java/bin">http://www.hdfgroup.org/ftp/HDF5/hdf-java/bin</a>.



<p />
The pre-built binaries include all of the HDF Java Products listed in the 
table above and the HDF4 and HDF5 libraries required by JHI and JHI5.
Binaries are provided for <B>Linux, Mac OS X, Solaris,</B> and <B>Windows</B> 
in the corresponding <B>platform</B> subdirectories of the ftp site.
